There are different approaches to improve the efficiency of induction motors. In this paper, the considered approaches include, design of the rotor slot, rotor slot shape, and stator and rotor diameters which are applied on a 30-kW 3-phase, 4-poles, 48-stator slots, and 44-rotor squirrel cage induction motor. Comparison of analytical, simulation and experimental results confirm the proposed FEM-based model of set-up induction motor. The sensitivity analysis of efficiency considering the variations of rotor slot dimensions, stator outer diameter, and stator and rotor diameters have been applied on the case-study. The results of the GA-based optimal design of the rotor slot dimensions showed a 0.32% improvement in motor efficiency. On the other hand, changing the motor core diameters has more effects on motor efficiency so that, when the stator and rotor outer diameters were increased simultaneously, the efficiency was increased by 0.55%. However, if the stator outer diameter just increased, motor efficiency increased by 0.76%. Finally, the economic evaluation was accomplished to validate the optimal approach of motor design for three cases of electricity consumption per kWh.
